Because we broadcast to two radio markets (Syracuse and Utica-Rome) I was thinking maybe we should do a LIVE remote from the exact halfway point between the two. Closest geographic midpoint that I can tell would be…Wampsville! Any specific suggestions for Wampsville locales?

Gomez just read an article about mistakes women make while posting an on line personal ad.
I have help! Here are my tips for men and women.
Don’t lie! If you hate NASCAR don’t say you love it. If you are attracted to guys who like it, say you’re open to trying new things… Be positive.
Use a real and current photo and not one from Hallowen where you are dressed like a pirate wench.
Hey guys, don’t lie about how much money you make. We’ll find out when you roll up to dinner in your buddies 1992 honda civic not the BMW you claim is in the shop.
And don’t send pix of your “junk”, unless she asks you for it.
Good luck in the shallow waters of the 21st century dating pool…..

Now that Paul has kicked the habit, perhaps he can help answer this question…is there any food item that actually smells better after it goes bad?

When you think of Summer you think of certain things such as Cook-outs, Vacations, Baseball games and various other things. Well when I think of Summer not only do I think of that stuff but also Thunderstorms!! When I was a kid I was scared to death of them, but now I am glued to the window when one hits.
At the beginning of spring/summer I kept saying I want thunderstorm(s) to hit my hometown (nothing to severe), and let me tell you, as of recent I have to say my love of them has dwindled into annoyance with the daily occurance of Thunderstorms.
I have officially learned my lesson…”becareful what you wish for”. You would think I would have learned this when I was at school at SUNY Oswego. I kept wishing for snow and it wouldn’t snow…finally about 2 days into the Spring semester it started to snow and didn’t stop!! 5feet of snow, a really bad case of cabin fever , 2 1/2 days later..I trecked out the student parking lot in hopes to find my car again all the while mumbling to myself…be careful what you wish for!
Obviously I am not to blame for the millions of thunderstorms rolling through the area, but I have to say I feel slightly guilty wishing for them..haha and once again I learned my lesson!
Talk to you all soon!!

With the rainout and cancellation of what was to be the final Hall of Fame Game in nearby Cooperstown, the ‘center of the baseball universe’ (in quotes for a reason I’ll explain in a bit), a fine tradition has come to an end…and baseball fans will again lament change to their game. Perhaps no other sports fans are as respectful, protective, and adamant about keeping the traditional elements of their game alive.
Let’s face it, baseball fans have had to endure quite a bit of tradition-bending events of late: The switch to the East/Central/West division model and modifications to the playoff system that mirror the agruably more popular NFL post season…the breaking of the cardinal rule that the AL and NL would NEVER meet in anything but the World Series with the advent of interleague play…and while the debate about whether or not this is good still flares on occasion, for the most part, fans have accepted it for what it is.
However, I don’t think baseball fans should stand for the Hall Of Fame Game being wiped clean from the MLB schedule. It’s not only a blow to diehard baseball fans, but a blow the area’s economy. But, even more than that, the biggest reason I can think of for fans to be upset is summed up in one word:
ACCESIBILITY.
Think about this…one of the reasons NASCAR skyrocketed in popularity in the early 90’s was how accesible the drivers (read ‘athletes’) were to the fans. The intimate setting of Doubleday Field in Cooperstown gave fans that same type of access, and I think in some small way represented the fact that the sport was still about the fans who watched and cheered their favorites on, and not about merchandising, stadium deals, and obscenely paid athletes who can’t be bothered to acknowledge the people who pay for grossly overpriced nosebleed level seats and miniature beers and hot dogs…all of which are paying their obscene salaries.
Shame on Major League Baseball for effectively ‘raising a leg’ on fans who’ve already had to endure the unthinkable…missing the World Series because the players went on strike…by eliminating a traditional element of the game’s history that should have continued for decades to come…a tradition that brought a pro sport back down to the fans who enjoyed it…
In fact, I’d like to hear some players weigh in on their dislike of the game being eliminated…y’know, there’s some that play that still recognize that tradition, and more importantly, RESPECT it.
Oh, wait…the player’s union might have something to say about that…(sigh)…

Well, it’s been over four weeks…and it doesn’t really feel like four weeks…doesn’t feel like a week…to tell you the truth, I couldn’t put a time frame on it, long or short…
I’m talking about quitting….as in putting down the Marlboro Mediums for good. After smoking since college, I finally decided to quit.
Mind you, I’m using a nic patch system, so it’s not ‘cold turkey’, but the odd thing is…I’ve had no real cravings…for me, it’s been changing my habits that was the hardest…
How have I done it without being a moody so-and-so to everyone around me? Simple…I haven’t thought about it. Period. Sounds incredibly silly, but it’s working…
I guess you could say I’ve given myself an early birthday present (it’s coming up on Sunday the 8th, and NO, you don’t get to find out what my age is!)…
Later!

Loving summer and the ride home from work. Explored the windfarm in Fenner. Drove right up close to one of the windmills(wind turbine?)and was amazed at how gigantic they are. I think they are a beautiful sight. And of course the view that goes with them. I want one, maybe even a whole crop.
